- Comment on Burning Man, tech bros' favorite party, is in jeopardy because of Tropical Storm Hilary 1 year ago:
As a burner, I find calling it a "tech bro party" pretty reductive.
I do my regional burn every year for like $600 including ticket costs which basically go straight to paying for a venue. Ticket costs for the big burn can range massively, but it's based on a pay-what-you-can structure, with tickets going to theme camps first and the rest being lottery-ed off. Please don't let salty media trick you into hating these people.
Most people have no idea how much work is put into building things just for other people. We erect an entire city by hand for free so people can come enjoy it and have wild experiences. Everyone always talks big game about wanting more art and less corpo shit, yet will absolutely dogpile burning man, one of the largest art festivals with no corpo shit and no ads or anyone trying to sell you something.
